Christabel is a feminine name derived from the Latin "Christus," meaning "Christ," and the French "belle," meaning "beautiful." It can be interpreted as "beautiful Christ" or "Christ is beautiful." The name gained popularity in English-speaking countries during the late 19th century, largely due to Samuel Taylor Coleridge's famous poem "Christabel," which depicted a young maiden with supernatural encounters. Today, Christabel remains a unique and elegant name choice, often associated with grace and beauty. It carries significant religious connotations and has been used in various literary works, adding to its allure.
